Clinical Trial: Modulating Goal-directed Navigation Using Noninvasive Brain Stimulation
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Spatial Navigation
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Official Title: Modulating Spatial Processing During Goal-directed Navigation Using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
Brief Summary:
Our specific aim is to examine the effects of TMS on spatial processing during goal-directed navigation.In these experiments the investigators will utilize a scalp-recorded brain oscillation called right posterior theta that is believed to index the sensitivity of the parahippocampal cortex to spatial context.Here the investigators will asked whether this electrophysiological signal can be modulated up or down using TMS while participants engage in virtual navigation tasks, and if so, whether it would affect the…
